It doesn’t matter if he is unsure how to vote on the bill itself. This is just him trying to cover his butt. Once the cloture vote happens, and he has said that he would vote for cloture, he will vote noa dnit will pass anyway. It must be killed on the cloture vote or it will be crammed through.

PASS THE WORD: Here's the MO being used to pass the amnesty atrocity (thanks to FReeper Ingtar's analysis):

Once the cloture vote is called (GOP leader McConnell and others have said they will vote FOR cloture), they will then vote "NO" on the bill---but it will pass, anyway.........thus covering their butts.

Amnesty must be killed on the cloture vote or it will be crammed through.

I wrote him an email...I had to come up with a Kentucky address-I am in Georgia. I told him that a vote for cloture is a vote for the bill period and it would be a shame for this to end his career given his track record and thus provide an unwanted legacy. Those of you in Kentucky, keep emailing and calling.
